The following recommended vyarâ€" ieties of corn are arranged in order of their maturity: Quebec Yellow, Longfellow, â€"Sandford or North Dakota, Compton‘s Early, Golden Glow, Early White Cap, Wisconsin No. 7. In selecting varieties for our _ Northern _ districts, laterâ€" maturing, heavierâ€"yielding varieties may be planted on a warm sandy soil than on a cold clayey one. The proper maturing is essential to high quality: ensilage, and this should ‘be aimed at even although an increased acreage is needed to give the desired quantity.. An investigation conducted by the Seed Branch shows that about sixty soâ€"called varieties of corn are grown for ensilage in Ontario and Quebec, and many farmers do not know what variety they are plantâ€" ing. Late varieties are being used in districts where they will not maâ€" ture one year in five to the glazing of the grain, which is the necessary condition to make sweet ensilage. Some ordinary feed corn imported from the Central and Southern States is used for seed. Most of this is of a late variety entirely unsuited to. Canadian conditions and is often injured by heating. ‘After using. Dodd‘s Kidney Pills I recommend them to everyâ€" one who wants to be cured."

Enough, Butâ€" Absolutely but just } Boft pork, unsuited to the proâ€" duction of a high quality of bacon, is due to unthriftiness and lack of exercise. Imperfect feeding, marâ€" keting before finished, held too long after finish, and undue forcing are causes. Feeding too much corn to young pigs is objectionable. Wheat and rye middlings are unsatisfacâ€" tory, and beans, soyâ€"beans, proâ€" duce a soft, oily pork. Barley ranks first in producing the best grade of bacon, skim milk and whey with cereal grains, including corn, make a solid flesh particularly desirable. Rape, roots and clover are helpful, but must be judiciously used. Exâ€" ercise favors firmness of flesh. Pigs properly fed, with exercise, up to 100 lbs., if in this condition may be finished on almost any of the comâ€" mon meal mixtures, and produce fine bacon. Feed slightly less than a full ration. A little corn can be. used at all times, and a very conâ€" siderable amount when finished, if combined with dairy byâ€"products and barley, oats and peas. Doctorâ€"Are you feeling very ill!
